The operator's field report ("eject slot flashing but no graphic in it") was
the tracked-NULL bring-up stub in BallisticWeaponCluster. Reconstructed the
missing gauge class from the binary:
- BitMapInverseWipeScalar @004c61c8 (vtable 0x518a14; base @004c5e84,
Execute @004c5fb8, BecameActive @004c5fa4): a bitmap COLUMN SWEEP whose
level tracks a live Scalar -- two spans with INVERTED colour pairs,
[0..level] fg colorA / bg colorB, remainder the inverse.
- Wired per the binary call site (part_014.c:2312): bteejtm.pcc at (0xF,0)
on the weapon's eng port, colours 0/0xFF, watching the weapon's
PercentOfEject (@0x3F8, the round-eject 0..1 progress) via a new
complete-type bridge BTWeaponPercentOfEjectPtr (databinding rule).
At idle (level 0) the EJECT graphic now renders in the slot; during a
round-eject cycle it sweeps with the countdown. BTEEJTM.PCC ships in
content/GAUGE (the loose gauge bitmap set). Smoke-tested: constructs clean.
